Leon Lai Ming along with his company's artists Janice Vidal (Wai Lan) and Janice Man Wing Shan, as well as Wilfred Lau Ho Lung, worked on their new film FROZEN. The new film is Kwok Chi Kin directed. Two nights ago a production start ceremony was held and boss Peter Lam Kin Ngok visited the set. Lai Ming gave up his handsome image for a beggar role in BODYGUARDS AND ASSASSINS (SUP YUET WAI SING). This time in his new film FROZEN he again played a homeless person who lived under an overpass. Lai Ming expressed that he was only guest starring. The director asked him to appear in a homeless look so he followed suit. He thought it was a lot of fun.

Lau Ho Lung two nights ago appeared with a nostalgic look. He expressed about his hairstyle, "Luckily my hair line isn't receding." Ho Lung expressed that the most memorable was working with Ti Lung. He praised him as a veteran who treated his juniors very well.

In the film Janice Man played Wai Lan's mother. He expressed that she had a pregnant look. Before the shoot she did some research and asked her mother for advice. Janice Man expressed that sometimes the shoot lasted over ten hours a day so it was a little tough. Did boss Lai Ming visit the set? She said, "Sure, but at the time I didn't know. Actually at work I wouldn't give myself too much stress, to avoid any effect on work." Janice Man pointed out that earlier the temperature reached as high as 37 degrees Celsius. She said, "The toughest part is the fake belly that is full of cotton, which is itchy and hot. I can't take care of that with my hand either." Janice Man honestly said that working with Wai Lan has been very pleasant. She expressed that rumors would not affect their relationship. Sometimes they would joke around with them.

Wai Lan expressed that she was exhausted from the production and her new record promotion. "I have never worked three nights in a row. Because the character had to run and jump around, with my flu earlier I had a tough time. I ran out of breath from just climbing the stairs now." Wai Lan expressed that although she did not have time to sleep and was tired, she would persist in hopes of achieving a good performance. Wai Lan expressed that earlier when she worked with Ti Lung, she said that her Chinese has never been great and her speaking voice was too soft. Thus she had many bad takes. Luckily the director has been great to her and did not impact her confidence. She said that in the film she had a scene in which boss Lai Ming yelled at her. She said that the boss never yelled at her ordinarily. She would put her best face forward. In addition her boss knew she had zero acting experience and would understand.
